"Skete of Agios Andreas" is a 1924 painting by Greek artist Spyros Papaloukas (1892–1957). The artwork features a stylized depiction of a town nestled within a mountainous landscape. Papaloukas' use of soft, muted colors and simplified forms gives the scene a dreamlike quality, suggesting the artist’s interest in the picturesque. The painting's subject is likely a religious retreat in Greece, as "Skete" is a Greek word referring to a monastic community.
